Joe Aycock wrote that the cornerstone of this structure, which I didn’t locate when I photographed it, identified the building as Ocilla Chapel, AD 1919. Karen Phillips writes: For most of its history this was known as the Free Will Baptist Church, located on 7th Street between Oak Street and Maple Street. It was probably built in the early 1900s. It was moved to its present location in the mid-2000s and is now occupied by an African-American congregation known as the Church of Deliverance. To me, it’s the most unique church building in Ocilla. I hope it can be preserved in its present appearance.
The Cornerstone reads Ocilla Chappel AD 1919. I photographed it 6-25-2023.
What a nice photo of this place ! It should be preserved.

Amazing! I agree that it would be a shame to change its appearance.
